Resident Evil 6

EDIT: If a mod can merge this with the current RE6 thread is already made.

RE6 has been announced since last month, and was supposed to be an original release of November 20, 2012, but Capcom moved it up to October 2nd, which makes me even more excited.

I've been wanting the main RE series to go back into the zombie outlook, and finally, they have, starting with ORC (Operation Raccoon City.)

Now my question is, who here are big fans of the RE game, even though most of their past games have been going down a bit in appeal.

I'm planning to pre-order my copy of RE6 soon, alongside Dead or Alive 5, and Black Ops II.

Anyone here excited for RE6?

And merged!

I hope that blonde dude yelling 'I once was a mercenary but then I took an arrow to the knee' is Hunk... Sounds like he lost his cold personally a little... But as time changes, I guess peeps do too...

GROUNDBREAKING UPDATE

That is NOT Hunk(now I'm really glad) but instead is Jake Muller. This new character is actually... wait for it...
WESKER'S SON

Also, Chris becomes some drunkard after quitting the BSAA when losing several comrades in Edonia(most likely the movie they are making will be based in this area). He of course returns to help contain the outbreak.

Lulz! Oh Chris...

The girl is sherry, I think her name is, The little girl from Resident Evil 2 that Leon and Claire save.
Personally I liked the co-op of Resi 5 but they need to bring the horror of limited ammo and not being able to kill all the enemies.

Yeah Capcom spilled a sufficient amount of info(characters, foes, etc) for us to feed upon and still be hungry for more! RE4 gave me the same feeling but RE5 didn't due it feeling too much like RE4. Though I enjoy both greatly for what they have!

Althought limited ammo would be nice to have again, I feel this game is merely bringing back zombies while still giving you sufficient ammo to knock them all down with, much like in ORC.

Personally,

I think unlimited ammo was/is a great addition to RE5. I don't know how greatly it will affect RE6 though.

It makes it more fun when you can kill everything in sight, and not have to worry about not being ready for the next fight ahead.

Besides, you have the option to turn it off, IF you really want to. Although, for me, I think the game is a lot more fun when you don't have to scavenge every nook and cranny for precious ammo. And there's no better feeling than having conquered an enemy that took you down because you have no more ammo.

True, RE6 will bring back to the roots of survival horror, but I think they still made a great move with the INF. Ammo.

Even then, I'd mostly play RE6 for Mercs, which looks great, considering, you can now have 4 player mercs!

[Imp]

After what was a success from RE5's VS mode and the fact that multiplayer is what really helped ORC, I feel RE6' multiplayer will for sure be well done. I wonder if PC users will get a special game mode like No Mercy for the new Mercenaries cause THAT was fun!

Well seeing as what we are going against in RE6, inf. ammo is a relief AND should help the game flow.

There's a public demo being released today for US on PS3 and Xbawx360.

It's different from the one that came with Dragon's Dogma, so I look forward to playing it today.

Spoiler: Soilers ahead and your thoughts on the game? 

I am slightly disappointed with Mercenaries No Mercy. Feels way too easy compared to RE5's No Mercy. Sure, the new control scheme has helped change the experience of the game a lot, but in most the levels, you can just wander around and let the enemy accidentally kill each other! Also, wouldn't have hurt to keep that 400 enemy limit unlike the 300 they have now. Now I never have a problem with timing since I end up killing every enemy before the timer runs out. So much for the survival aspect of that mode. I guess RE5 will keep that aspect of it.
However, still will always love the game mode to death and Leon's pirate costume is epic.

Also, for anyone and everyone, what was your favorite campaign and why?
They all held something special to me but Chris and Piers won me over.

Leon's campaign was neat for the fact it was a blast from the past with the zombies. However, the boss fight at the end killed it and revenge gets tiring when nothing else happens.

Ada's is always a unique addition since it gets behind the scenes much like her RE4 story. Nothing much else to say.

Jake's was only neat for the fact it involved Sherry. I love RE2 and so hearing Sherry would be in 6 sparked my interest even more in the game.The fact that Jake was Wesker's son didn't shake me much at all as the tension between him and Chris was obvious to come. Neo-Nemesis er uh, I mean Ustanak wasn't anything special to me either.

As was stated earlier, Chris won me over with the gripping story of Chris and Piers aaaannnddd the BSAA trying to mop up another outbreak. I felt the story was better compared to the others since it went more into an emotional struggle rather than being chased nonstop, trying to solve a doppelganger mystery ooorrrr just revenge. Instead we have Chris pulling himself together after a terrible incident thanks to the support of Piers (who really helped move the story along).

While Chris' frustration started to get a little silly over Carla, it quickly subsided as the story progressed.
The big kicker for me was Piers though. Seeing him inject himself with the C-virus to help Chris and stop Haos proved how much of a true soldier he really is, er was, er... anyway!
Was a touching ending. =P
